- That our trip was on a great day is evidenced by the traffic on the water. There were boats everywhere, and no small number of happy dogs aboard those boats.
Thank you for watching! We appreciate you.
Onward!
Guy and Vickie...and Sailor too!

Love seeing Sailor run.
She is a runner, indeed.
Cool. Good video. Dinner looked great.
Thank you!
It must be pretty cool having them open the bridge for you. 😎🏄
It's fun sometimes, but also a bit of a pain when we have to just hang around waiting while dealing with currents and wind in crowded quarters as we did in this video. We've gotten better at it but it can still get dicey when we're in a narrow space.
20 Seagulls!!!
Sounds like a great name for a band! 😉
Sailor is a hyper girl! It’s so nice she can do that.
Dinner looked yum! But most of all I loved the harbor footage. Real life on a boat!!
You're right about Sailor being hyper. She loves to run, especially after being stuck on the boat for a few days.
She's starting to figure out that riding the dinghy is a good thing because it means she'll get to run on a beach or somewhere. Today she had a breakthrough while at a beach and waded into the water up to her chest, and she even retrieved her ball from the water. That's a new thing and we're really excited to see what she does as she gets bolder.
@@CruisingOnward lol. Yeah that’s all good until an alligator pops up!
But it is nice she’s exploring the world!! Whoo hoo!
@@CruisingOnward oh.. and make sure she doesn’t chase a seal out to sea. That gets a bit frantic! Lolol
@@mallariculp3551 -- Sounds like there's a great story behind that advice!
@@CruisingOnward there is! Lolol. I ran the length of two beaches as she headed south and further and further out. She was well past the pier when the seal finally went under and there she was alone. She was unable to even hear me, and I was a speck on the beach- but I’m jumping, waving my arms and yelling as loud as humans get. I was almost out of options when she finally heard my voice and started back to shore. She made it all the way back to the breakers, but she couldn’t make it through them. So I had to go in and rescue her, and the waves were insanely strong even for me. Of course, I had just run down two beaches and had my adrenaline on full speed for close to an hour. On any case, failure was not an option, as I saw it, and I got us both out of that and we both collapsed on the sand, where it took me several minutes to see that there were several people sunning on that sand, half in the water, who must have seen the whole thing. Yet not one of them got out of their chair or said anything. It still makes me question what I missed. You know?
But she did not die at sea that day. By the grace of God.
Frantic sums it up, right? Lol
That story in more detail is in my book. I should have published it because that incident … I mean what are the odds that a seal chooses your dog from an entire beach of dogs - on Dog Beach - to play with, and your dog becomes bewitched by the seal so much as to ignore you. My dog loved me, and was spellbound by this seal, and she ignored me. The seal left, and she was frantic. She was looking for me.
What was that? 😳
I remember it all.
One question… I know you work hard anchoring, fixing stuff, yada yada, but is boating like sailing, where you’re working most of the cruise time? Just wondering.
We tend to do more of our boat work when we're docked or anchored.
Unlike sailing, we don't have to handle lines and swap sails and continually tack, so we mostly just get to just enjoy the views while steering, watching for hazards, adjusting speed, and the like.
Also, Vickie is usually engaged with her contracting work while we're cruising, but I do most of mine once we've stopped for the day.
